Padres at Rockies picks and predictions
Prediction
Rockies 5, Padres 4
Money line
The Padres were swept in Colorado in 3 games June 17-19. The Rockies are 23-21 at home and have won 7 of their last 9 at Coors Field.
Meanwhile, the Padres are struggling offensively, having scored 2 or fewer runs in 8 of their last 10 games.
Take the ROCKIES (+130).

Run line/Against the spread
The Rockies are also 23-21 ATS at home this season.
While the Padres are 29-15 ATS on the road, that drops to 12-10 ATS as away favorites.
Manaea has struggled as of late and does not have a good track record at Coors Field.
I like the Rockies to win outright, making the money line the better bet, but if you want a little leeway, the run line is still worth some action. Take the ROCKIES +1.5 (-117).
Over/Under
Only 3 of the Rockies’ last 18 games have had 12 or more runs.
The Padres’ game Sunday had 12 runs, but they had a 10-game streak without a single game hitting 12 runs. They have also struggled to score runs, as noted previously.
Take UNDER 11.5 (-102).
